Rangersitis 0 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 It is/was the same Rangers before green and it is the same rangers after ,never has it been a negative to pull on that strip. One man does not define the club or justify turning your back to line your own pocket through nothing more than dislike for a character. As has been said Ad nauseam no excuse for not signing over then asking for a transfer. If Green had said no which there is no basis to believe then boo hoo you would have been left playing for Rangers poor baby. No, it really isn't. It is a tawdry imitation of what it once was. As has been said ad nauseum, if they had all transferred across, how would Green have covered the wage bill? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEARGER 1,830 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 More crap from a former player. He was feeling the strain due to his fathers cancer so he moved down south! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Ness is cracking player, but he was (and no doubt still is) far too injury prone, so it was unlikely to work out for him with us long term anyway. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A quid? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveC 150 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) "It all happened so quickly" = no it did not. Plus the article and Ness deliberately mis-read the Whittaker and Naismith situation. It's a dreadful attempt at rewriting history all based on the bizarre premise of his dad having cancer so he thinks the way to help is to to move far away from home as quickly as he can.

SteveC 150 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 A transfer? How much would we have got for Ness? A quid? You can get a lot for a quid. Rangers for one, naming rights to the stadium for another 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 "It all happened so quickly" = no it dod not. Plus the article and Ness deliberately mis-read the Whittaker and Niasmith situation. It's a dreadful attempt at rewriting history all based on the bizarre premise of his dad having cancer so he thinks the way to help is to to move far away from home as quickly as he can. in the end it did actually. green never spoke to the players until the very last minute to offer them the transfer over. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Ness looked like the best youngster coming through, but was never fit. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy steel 0 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 If the main breadwinner in your family (I imagine his Dad) is diagnosed with a potentially terminal illness, then yes, moving anywhere for what was presumably a lot of money to assure your family's security would be the best thing to do. We're straying into complete fantasy here, with people calling Ness out for doing what they would have done as well. Tbh I had forgotten all about him so he can rest easy about any phobias about abuse, from me anyway. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,653 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 No, it really isn't. It is a tawdry imitation of what it once was. As has been said ad nauseum, if they had all transferred across, how would Green have covered the wage bill? He could have borrowed to pay the salaries til the end of august and would have sold the players during august. Quite simple really but he never got the chance as greed and self interest won the day 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
